Trying to get into shape packin the 395. Steep ground is sure taken toll on my kneesView attachment 286442

I've used a saw pack to hike a 395 around ( up and down a mountain), it may have made it better? I was at least able to use walking sticks.

So what's this saw pack you speak of?

They work well if you have a scabbard and a top handle , idk about a full wrap?

Out of the burn for a week or so...found another faced stob done with crosscut and axe. Interesting.

I tried something similar a while back. I was not a fan. It didn’t handle the clutch side handle on the 461 very well and it pulled back on my shoulder too much to be anything close to be considered comfortable. There’s not enough space to carry much other than the saw, it doesn’t work with a conventional dulmar and it makes your fire shelter rub on your ass too much. It also caused the bar to knock off my Bullard a few times, but that may be a product of me having a 32 on and me being 5’6 with a really short torso.

But, different strokes for different folks, YMMV, yada. I could see it be a nice option for an R8 crew that’s never very far from the truck, runs half wraps and doesn’t run a long bar. I’ll just be sticking to a cut section of 5”’supply hose across the left strap of my pack.

Some nice beech and maple coming along. Does the soft maple scare anyone?
Took the day to do some cleanup

I’d just cut them separately.

 

[Catbuster]

That last tree is included bark city. I’d lay those two stems out separately.

Thats the skid line it is hooked to the yarder. If you look real closely you can see it
